Reviews for Swift Selection Search
Swift Selection Search by Daniel Lobo
Review by aurelya
Rated 5 out of 5
by aurelya, 7 years agoI am loving this extension! Just wondering if you could add a user page or something where users can submit more examples (If something like this already exists, please let me know!)? A couple of things I'm looking for but haven't figured out just yet are how to have the selected text's hyperlinked url open as cached link [basically launch url as a google webcache search] or similarly open link as viewsource. Hope that somehow makes sense.
Here's some dumb ones I use regularly, lol, if anyone cares. :D

Developer response
posted 7 years agoThank you for the review and sorry for the late reply! There's no user list for this but from time to time I see if there are some more engines that make sense as defaults or as examples that come with SSS.
These are good suggestions. Thanks for sharing them with everyone. :) I will think about the user list (actually added that to my to-do list), but it might be a little nightmare-ish to maintain with reasonable quality, so no promises! ;)
Cheers!
Daniel

- Rated 5 out of 5by Leviii, 2 months agoAmazing addon, I have bunch of search engines saved and it prevents me from routing everything through google. Also I have integrated it with everything windows search app which makes it even more useful. Currently development is stalled but it's become irreplaceable for me.

- Rated 5 out of 5by mnaonmf, 3 months agoThis extension is absolutely fantastic—the intuitive yet powerful interface, the deep customization options, and the full backup and restore features make it a joy to use. Truly impressive work. You've covered it all (except an Android version 😭 though I know there's a fork I can use instead).

- Rated 5 out of 5by Aissa Jessus, 3 months agoVery effect and clean. Easy and quick to setup and add new search sites and customize them.
I am currently using it heavily for cross sites search and routine custom searches.

- Rated 5 out of 5by RichardJT, 5 months agoGood morning , i hope you're well. So, more default SEs nice, but easy enough to add. Sweet, sweet ride!!! Stays open when other tasks need attention; not like bill's menus.
6/5 bc this your only add-on.
7/5 bc i can't see a way to donate for your exceptional effort. C u on github, hopefully.

- Rated 4 out of 5by DynaZor, 7 months agowaiting for full Android Firefox Final (not only beta) release then 5 stars
- Rated 4 out of 5by Wolf, 8 months agoIt would be 5 stars, but gave 4 just because it is not localized. You should really add a localization feature, that would make this extension PERFECT!
- Rated 5 out of 5by flank, 8 months agoThis is a fantastic extension, so glad I found it - changed my life!
